The Council failed to provide Miss X’s daughter, K, with suitable education when she was out of school and delayed issuing her final Education, Health and Care (EHC) Plan. These failings resulted in K missing education and caused Miss X uncertainty and distress. The Council has agreed to apologise and make payments to remedy their injustice. It has also agreed to make service improvements.
